McClure's McMud worked ... in the primary. In a campaign against an unknown with no money, McClure just had to slime his opponent. His negative campaign, in which he resurrected the memory of Will Power's quadriplegic and deceased brother, revealed a lot more about McClure than it did about Power.
With most precincts in, McClure has 2,559 votes to a very strange 666 for Power, or 79% of the vote. He'll be facing Republican Mark Schwartz, who ran unopposed for the Republican nomination, this Fall.
The more people get to know McClure, the less they like. He'll lose this Fall.

You own views are appreciated, especially if they differ from mine. But remember, commenting is a privilege, not a right. I will delete personal attacks or off-topic remarks at my discretion. Comments that play into the tribalism that has consumed this nation will be declined. So will comments alleging voter fraud unless backed up by concrete evidence. If you attack someone personally, I expect you to identify yourself. I will delete criticisms of my comment policy, vulgarities, cut-and-paste jobs from other sources and any suggestion of violence towards anyone. I will also delete sweeping generalizations about mainstream parties or ideologies, i.e. identity politics. My decisions on these matters are made on a case by case basis, and may be affected by my mood that day, my access to the blog at the time the comment was made or other information that isn’t readily apparent.
I'm a lifelong true-blue Dem, but I plan to contact Mark Schwartz and offer my assistance.
ReplyDeleteLamont went waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay over the line - he ought to be ashamed of himself.
But he's not. He'll be power drunk now.
ReplyDeleteLamont should be ashamed of himself. He has done nothing to serve me a constiuent. He did not come to the meeting that he was asked to attend regarding my complaints about NC MH. He also has done nothing regarding the Meadows Rd Bridge.
